This guide assumes you already have an active wallet and have purchased tickets. If not, please follow the Voting Preparation guide.

The choice a ticket votes with depends on your vote preference at the time the ticket is chosen, not when it is bought. So you can set your choice at any time within the voting window and all future tickets will vote accordingly.

If your Voting Service Provider (VSP) has updated to the latest VSP software, you will find a ‘Voting’ page in the navigation menu with dropdown options for each agenda. After you’ve chosen how you want your tickets to vote, simply press the ‘Update Voting Preferences’ button to save your vote choices. Below you’ll find an image of the vote choices for vote version 5.

You can also update your voting preferences via Decrediton. Under the ‘Tickets section’, ‘Governance tab’, you’ll find the option to set your vote.

The second command, dcrctl --wallet setvotechoice "agendaid" "choiceid", let’s you set your votechoice. "agendaid" is found via the getvotechoices command above, and "choiceid" can be yes, no, or abstain.
